John,
Donald Trump is showing signs of dementia.
Why is the media barely reporting on this? And why won’t they ask who’s really making the decisions in the White House?
Lashing out at reporters. Falling asleep at meetings. Misremembering basic facts. Claiming that certain prices have gone down 1,500% (that’s not how math works).
Why does Trump keep getting a pass for all of this?
For a long time, the media barely covered Trump’s mental decline. But during this second term, he has gotten more and more unhinged. Trump has shown confusion about who was president on January 6, or who House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is, or when Jeffrey Epstein was arrested and died in prison. Recently he went on a 15-minute rant about picture frames and lamps during a cabinet meeting. He’s also gotten more and more vindictive towards anyone he deems an “enemy.”
I hope you’ll join us for this week’s video, in which we discuss whether Trump’s acts are those of a sane person, or of an aging paranoid megalomaniac? Then please share with your friends!
Trump’s Cabinet could invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from office. Instead, Stephen Miller, Russell Vought, JD Vance, and RFK Jr. seem to be feeding into Trump’s paranoid delusions to increase their own power and advance their own fanatical agendas.
We must demand that the media fully investigate and tell the truth about Trump’s deteriorating mental state — and expose any handlers who are exploiting it.
Thank you, and please help spread the word by sharing this video.
